Great week end!
December 24th 2006, London, UK

I spent a fantastic tiring week end a year ago in London with a friend I like a lot and with whom I love travelling!
We didn't make anything special, we just walked through the city and enjoyed what we saw. I love London, it makes me feel I am at home!
Of course some things are impossible to miss like the Tower Bridge, Saint James'Park, Buckingham Palace, Covent Garden...
To me, London is the capital of diversity more than Paris. What do you think? ;-)
